🎸 *Masta Shen*
Masta Shen is a guitarist and songwriter with decades of experience; a student of flamenco and pupil of Maestro Paco Serrano.
His signature sound was developed through years of performing at sacred fire and medicine ceremonies, drawing inspiration from nature and spirit.
Although largely specialising in medicine and devotional music, he incorporates flamenco technique with healing melodies, infusing gentle harmonies with powerful rasqueados and rhythms, delivering a powerful and unforgettable style which fuses into multiple genres from hip-hop and drum & bass to gypsy folk, psytrance, kirtan, contemporary and classical music.
From forest drum circle gatherings to tree planting ceremonies in the countryside, from the rivers of Andelucia to the coasts of Crete, from the mountains of Switzerland to the giant redwood forests of California, Masta Shen has travelled through the world on a musical jouney performing at private events, weddings, ceremonial occasions and tribal gatherings of many kinds.
He has supported acts such as Mobius Loop, Alex Akal & the Wolves, Aylon Akhande, Kaya Ori, Brother Rash and many others at festivals such as Lovejam, Elementary, Into the Wild, All About Love, Sun & Moon, Boomtown and Medicine etc.
Music is his passion, his joy and his life as he continues to travel the world on the path of discovery and musical mastery.
✨ *Together as Kaya Ori* ✨
Masta Shen and Jessica Lewis unite their talents to create a magical balance of intricate guitar work, harmonized vocals, and heartfelt songs. Their music takes listeners on a journey through consciousness, weaving original compositions with carefully chosen medicine songs from across the globe.
